The key sequences for narrowing are _disabled_ by default as narrowing is confusing. If you haven't enabled them, this should not be an issue. Looking at LilyPond-mode, I see a few occurences of narrowing: $ git grep narrow lilypond-indent.el: (narrow-to-region lilypond-mode.el: (narrow-to-region start end) lilypond-song.el: (narrow-to-region (or (mark) (point)) (point))) Those are likely for purely programmatic reasons. If you are plagued here, you may want to review the respective Elisp passages to see if the narrow-to-region sequences are reliably reversed (by being encapsulated in constructs that are guaranteed to restore the state of narrowing even when exited in error cases). -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
